Five weeks to go
I am free for the weekend. Today is my day of rest in preparation for tomorrow’s projected 18 miles.
18 miles…three times around Central Park. It’s a race sponsored by ING as the marathon tune-up. The car will be picking us up at 5:30AM. I just hope to finish close to the 4 hour mark and we were talking about wanting to try to make it fun–whatever that means in this context.
After a week of the mayhem of JD, I think that it will be a good thing to let off some steam, but I am tired and not terribly motivated. It will be rough when all the people who are finishing in 9 minute miles are finishing the race just as we start our final loop. I hate being lapped by hundreds of people.
I will check in tomorrow with the results of our early morning adventures.
